Getting Ready for the Dedication.

All the SKAFFAREN world knows
that new building has been erected
on College hill, st. Peter, in which the
two new departments, - the musical
and the commercial, are to be opened
in November; and that this building is
to be dedicated on the first three days
Of November. But it is important that
the rest of the world embraced within
the limits Of our Minnesota Confer

end, and public sympathy is with them, as it
ought to be. 1t is exceedingly doubtful If
the patentee of the drive-well, or his assignees,
have legal right to enforce the payment OF
royalty in these cases, and it is certain they
have no equitable right. The original claim
rested on very fimsy foundation, and the
hundreds of thousands of persons who in recent
years have innocently availed themselves of
drive-wells should not be required to pay
tribute under an arbitrary construction of an
unjust law. 1t is to be hoped that the farm
ers may succeed in defeating the suits.

THE Soldiers Monument Commission seems

COMMISSIONER EDGERToN having frankly
expressed himself as opposed to the extension
of the civil-service reform system, and as
looking upon the enforcement of even the
bare letter of the law with anything but en-
thusiasn, the reform organs are declaring that
he is the only one of his kind on the board
supporters of the system. Mugwumps are ex-
cusable for believing that no genuine Demo
cratic lover of reform can come out of Indi-
ana, but when they rank Edgerton below
Oberly. of Illinois, then it is that the politi-
clans and ofice-seekers of two States smile.
The great point of difference between the two
commissioners is that Edgerton "gives him
self away" and Oberly doesn't.

cratic officials and papers beginning to
blow about the improved postal facilities be-
tween the United States and Mexico as one
of the achievements of this administration.
In this, as in other respects, this administra-
ton is doing business on borrowed capital.
1t has not inaugurated any reform nor made
any improvement in government methods.
1t is simply trying with very poor success,
to run the machine as the Republicans did
for years before. The Mexicans will not find
much in the postal service under this admin
istration worthy of imitation.

WILL some of the advocates Of the unre-
stricted gas ordinance who are so sure that
free competition will give US gas soonest, best
and cheapest, explain why it is that ice is
dearer this year than last P-Evening News.
Yes. Because the ice dealers in summer are
generally coal dealers in winter-in summer
they keep up the price of ice, in winter
they advance the price of coal-and the
natural gas out of the city, helps them to
maintain the monopoly summer and winter.
The News advocates the idea that home COM
panies will bring natural gas at the cheapest
rates. The ice dealers are home dealers, and
the rule that applies to them may we'll be APP
piled to home companies bringing in natural
gas. Does the News presume that the home
company is bringing in natural gas gift,
gratuity or that it will bring it in
Notwithstanding it has to sell? OF
course the company expects to make some
money out of its capital and business. Gas
companies are no more benevolent institu-
tons than are ice companies, and any or all
of them will make the most money they can.
Human nature Will not be changed by city
ordinance, any more than will the News give
its advertising columns for the benefit of the
widow and orphan. If the City Council will
pass ordinance giving the use of the
streets and alleys to any number of companies
that will bring gas into the city, and provid-
ing that the companies doing shall
keep the streets and alleys in repair and that
all work done by them shall be Of the very
best and latest improved kind, then we may
expect natural gas sometime in the next few
years; otherwise not, or not under the present
ordinance.

THE natural-gas ordinance is now more
than sixty days old. No company has yet
accepted its terms, and the Journal ventures
the opinion that no company, foreign or
home, will accept the present ordinance with
out amendment, and the company that holds
out the idea that it will accept the ordinance,
if there be such company (and the Journal
knows of none) deceives the people. The
Evening News appears to know all about the
natural-gas companies; it has no hesitation in
impugning the motives of those who do not
subscribe to its theories of gas by ordinance
and gas at ordinance price. VIII the News
